The product tip of the day is the Axis A8105-E Electronic Intercom, which is far more than just an access control peripheral. To better understand how this hardware works, let's explore more about electronic intercoms.
Electronic intercoms are communication devices that assist users in controlling entry and exit access to locations. These systems are commonly found at building and residential complex entrances. The device typically offers effective functionalities to enhance user security, as it eliminates the need to be physically present at the access point to manage entry and exit, thereby reducing risks of theft, assault, or any form of inconvenience.
Electronic Intercom + Network Integration
Now that we’ve outlined the basic functionalities of an electronic intercom, let’s highlight the advanced features that can make a difference when developing a security project.
Electronic intercoms like the Axis A8105-E come with advanced features such as connection to switches that enable access to an IP network, allowing data transmission via Wi-Fi to a computer.
The interesting part is that by connecting to a switch, it becomes possible for the system to integrate with a CFTV network, linking the access control camera to IP security cameras. As an Axis product, it also allows motion analysis and monitoring of everything captured within the camera’s monitoring perimeter (which offers HDTV 1080p resolution) with minimal bandwidth usage through Zipstream technology.
Finally, you can remotely control access via a smartphone connected to the internet, allowing a person to manage entry and exit from anywhere.
